(A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

✅ Correct Option: 1

'The policeman was busy' takes singular past 'was' (IV); 'both the suspected men were arrested yesterday' needs plural past 'were' (III); 'the formation of paragraphs is very important' has the singular subject 'formation' (I); 'Rita has a melodious voice' uses 'has' (II). Hence A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.
